Hello! I recently switched from arch linux to nixos about a month ago. Up till now everything has been flawless. Im running on a laptop with integrate graphics and a nvidia 3060. Recently eldenring has stopped using my gaphics card when run with nvidia-offload, other games like apex linux still seam to use it. Im at a loss on how to fix this and I cant find any resources on issues like this anywhere.

When it was working, did you have to put in any command line arguments or did it work on its own?

In my case, direct3d(dxvk) games always choose discrete graphics, but openGL always chooses internal and I have to force it from the command line.
